Unearthing the Gift

It’s time for #tarotthursdaythree! This writing challenge is hosted by Julia over at SpiralSeaTarot.com.

1. Reversals or nah?

I’m not very consistent with my reversals reading. Sometimes I will read them, and then sometimes I don’t. If I’m using the Rider Waite Smith I do tend to read the reversals, if I am using the Wild Unknown I tend not to. Not sure exactly how I decided that, but it is something I do. I think reversals are helpful sometimes, because they provide additional information about the state of the person or the situation, but it is a challenge to remember what the reversals mean.

2. If you could go back in time and give your novice self one piece of wisdom to fast track your tarot learning, what would it be?

My advice would be to not go over board with collecting decks!  I probably would not listen to myself, hahaha. Even now I continue to accumulate a lot of decks…sigh. I think working with one deck at a time and really learning it is a good way to learn more about the tarot, but hard to do with all the nice decks out there! That is my advice though. I would tell past Dianna to get to know her decks really well before adding more to the collection. My first 2 decks were the Universal Rider Wait and the Anna K Tarot. Both I still have, but only use one of them often.

3. What is your go-to spread?

I love three card spreads! My go-to’s are the Mind, Body, Spirit spread and the Within, Without, Advice spread. I like to keep it short and simple.

Thanks for stopping by!
